What is in a Caseload Marketing case study?

Every case study on this page names the practice area, the channel, the money spent and the leads it produced, in that order. We publish the cost per lead where the number is ours to publish, the volume where volume is the story, and the reach where a firm was buying name recognition rather than forms.

We do not publish signed-case counts or fee revenue. Those numbers belong to the firm, not to us, and no marketing agency can honestly claim credit for what happens after intake picks up the phone.

  • Figures from the source. Meta Ads Manager and the client’s own email platform, not a spreadsheet we typed up.
  • Lifetime, not cherry-picked months. Totals cover the whole period we have run the account.
  • The channel that did the work. Meta ads, email and newsletters, or both together.
  • Honest context. Where a number is high or low for its market, we say why.

Which channel produced these results?

Most of the law firm marketing case studies above are Meta ads, because that is where most of our clients spend. These are the channels behind the numbers.

Facebook & Instagram ads

Lead forms, click-to-call and video creative built for injury claimants, run and optimized daily.

Email & newsletters

Follow-up sequences for new leads and a monthly newsletter that keeps past clients and referral sources warm.

Direct mail

Targeted postcards and letters to the neighborhoods, past leads and former clients most likely to need the firm.

ChatGPT ads

A new channel for 2026: sponsored answers inside the assistant people now ask their legal questions.

AI voice agents & chatbots

The intake layer underneath everything above, so a lead that arrives at midnight is answered and booked.

All of it, together

One plan, one report, one team. The firms with the strongest numbers on this page run more than one channel with us.

What do the best-performing accounts have in common?

Looking across every account behind these law firm marketing case studies, the firms with the lowest cost per lead share four things.

01

Intake answers fast

The same lead is worth several times more when someone calls back in minutes rather than the next morning. Nothing we do in the ad account beats this.

02

One clear offer

The accounts with the cheapest leads run a single, plainly written offer rather than six variations of the same message.

03

Budget left alone

Accounts that keep a steady budget for months out-perform accounts that are switched on and off around cash flow.

04

Creative that gets refreshed

New video and new hooks every month. The fastest way to watch cost per lead climb is to leave the same three ads running all year.

Law firm marketing case studies: FAQs

What attorneys ask us when they read these numbers.

Are these law firm marketing case studies real?

Yes. Every figure on this page is pulled from an account Caseload Marketing manages: Meta Ads Manager for the advertising numbers and the client’s own email platform for newsletter open and click rates. Nothing is modeled, estimated or taken from an industry report.

Do your clients know their results are published here?

Yes. We do not publish client names, so each firm is identified by its market instead. Every client can see the same numbers in its own Ads Manager or reporting dashboard at any time, and if a client asks us to remove its case study, we remove it.

What is a good cost per lead for a law firm?

It depends entirely on the market and the practice area. Across the accounts on this page, cost per lead runs from around $32 in one metro to well over $200 in competitive markets and in practice areas where a single signed case is worth a great deal more. The number that matters is what a signed case is worth to your firm, not the average.

Do these numbers mean my firm would get the same results?

No, and any agency that promises otherwise is guessing. Your market, your practice area, your budget, your creative and above all your intake all change the outcome. These case studies show what we have produced for firms like yours, not what we guarantee.

How long before a new account produces results?

Meta accounts usually produce leads in the first week and settle into a stable cost per lead over the first month or two, once the campaign has enough conversion data. Email and newsletter programs compound more slowly, and direct mail is judged over repeat drops.

Do you only work with personal injury firms?

We work with personal injury firms only, which is why every case study on this page is an injury practice. Car and truck accidents, motorcycle, slip and fall, rideshare, wrongful death and nursing home negligence are the case types we market for. If your firm practices outside personal injury, we are not the right agency for you and we will say so.

Can I see the full account behind a case study?

On a call, yes. We can walk through a live Ads Manager view with you and show how the numbers on this page are built, subject to what each client has agreed we can show.

How do I get a case study like these for my firm?

Book a free marketing plan. We will look at your market, your current cost per lead and your intake, and show you what we would run first and what it would realistically cost.
